The Bridge across Lion Creek was installed today. Crews from T & T Truck and Crane Service arrived early this morning to set up the crane and get it properly weighted for the bridge. The bridge arrived yesterday in two sections which were separately dropped into place. Skip Gibbs Inc is working to weld the bridge in place. The final restoration of the stream channel will occur over the next couple of weeks. Erosion control material and seeding will occur before the first rains. The restored creek channel will now flow unobstructed through the site. Migrating fish will be able to swim upstream and the land owners will have safe and reliable access across their property.

A very happy property owner now has a safe and reliable bridge to use that no longer impairs fish passage through Lion Creek.
